Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games debuted on 3DS in Japan on February 18. During its first week (through February 21), the game moved about 44,000 copies. Dengeki also reports that Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games sold through 80 percent of its initial shipment.

How does that stack up to the series’ last entry? We don’t have a sell-through rate for that one, but Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games sold 45,000 units in its first week before going on to sell 267,000 copies total. Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games seems to be on a similar trajectory.

There’s also a bit of news about Jynx. The sprite was originally colored black, but has been changed to purple for the re-release.

On Monday, NeoGAF user “Trevelyan9999” posted alleged details regarding NX and Nintendo’s lineup for 2016. I usually tend to be skeptical when it comes to rumors from sources that I’m unfamiliar with or aren’t widely known, so I held off on sharing that on the site. However, new information has since come to light indicating that Trevelyan9999 may have been spot on.

Let’s go over the actual information first. Here’s a look at everything that was posted:

– Zelda Wii U will also be available for NX
– Zelda NX to be a holiday 2016 release either same day as Zelda Wii U or shortly after during the Nintendo NX holiday 2016 launch window
– Nintendo NX launch games for 2016 besides Zelda NX and marketing focus remain hidden for now
– Wii U $34.5 million marketing budget for 2016 total – Zelda Wii U has $10 million with the possibility of the funding being switched to Zelda NX version depending on launch timing in 2016.
– 3DS $56.25 million marketing budget for 2016 total

Spring-Early Summer
